No thank you FDR board, I don't think I want to.
This is your answer to frequent debunking of conspiracy theories he makes videos about?
-
Again, another conspiracy bites the dust.
Just as the IRS targeting conservatives "scandal" was totally debunked and Benghazi and pretty much every conspiracy Stefan ever made a video about, including the unbelievable statements he often makes about the climate change.
How much more credibility can Stefan lose before he becomes irrelevant?
That would be a real shame since his message about child raising, circumcision and education is really important but he's really starting to lose it.
I'm beginning to think that he is intentionally doing this(telling lies) to cozy up to the far right because he sees them as the only rallying force or audience for his donation model.

Education is a wonderful thing. I think you mean toxic school system.
Of course, current school system is an inefficient, useless Prussian monstrosity completely inappropriate for the 21. century.
The whole thing of going to a physical building to listen someone talk for 40 min is idiotic. If the world were to be reset with current technology nobody would even think that that would be a good idea.

Here is a link for the free pdf/epub of the book.

Anyhow, the point I'm trying to make is maybe libertarians can do a better job of taking advantage of this discontent with the current system.
I think the Pauls ruined libertarianism in America, they made it into a joke of half-baked incoherent ideas they pulled out of their asses depending on specific occasions.
The moment it's a wage, it can't be slavery. The moment it's slavery, it can't be a wage. The terms are incompatible.
You make yourself look foolish with comments like that, there are no structural conditions for the vast majority of people for them to have other choices, also, wage slavery denotes the state of using all your money just to survive and not be homeless, the terminology has merit.

I've just finished reading Fish: A Memoir of a Boy in a Man's Prison and it's like a real life demonstration of every single thing Stefan talked about; child abuse, familial decrepitude, toxic education system, psychiatry in the service of the state, estrogen based parasites, institutionalized superstition, military escape, rampaging statism that destroys people's lives en masse.
The amount of waste, pure vileness and irrationality of the American judicial and penal system is staggering. This really has to be the most primitive inhuman system ever devised in a first world country(compared to Northern europe).
I recommend this book to anyone, it has so many layers of ravages of the human condition.
Also, It would be great if Stefan invited the author, T. J. Parsell, on his show. I think he doesn't understand the full picture(how he was raped by the state) and he turned to superstition at the end(at least deistic one) so it would be revealing if you did an interview with him from your perspective.
Any chance Stefan is reading this forum? T. J. Parsell is an activist now, it would really be a great interview with him.

You missed the point, I'm not saying that intellectual and manual automation is bad, just that it makes capitalism and markets irrelevant and obsolete concepts.
-
Another take on this with the same conclusion.
Job destruction by robots could outweigh creation
There simply won't be enough jobs, not even close, there will have to be a basic income given out, just like it is proposed in Switzerland.

Of course, this was obvious to me before anyone even started analyzing the insane vitriolic hate Justin Bieber recieves.

The Free Market? What free market is it that you might be referring to? I don't think there is anyone alive on this board who has experienced a free market.
That's because every beginning of free market evolves to what we have today due to consolidation of power and differential advantage.
-
Just found a a great article on the myth of meritocracy and the flexibility of free market.

We don't want automated service sector people to help us (for example).
I don't get this, you want disgruntled low-grade employees to piss and rub their genitals on your food, you want postal workers to open and steal your mail packages, you want huge amounts of traffic deaths because humans are so damn unreliable?
You are being completely irrational.
Also, have you spoken to an average Joe lately, have you any idea how stupid and unadaptive most people are?
-
Seriously, we all knew this was going to happen.
Resource based economy like Peter Joseph suggests is the only way for the future.
After intellectual and manual automation you are really not left with much.
-
I just watched this video from start to finish.
Just one question, what about the artificiality of jobs and goods?
Even today a huge chunk of jobs can be automated and recent Oxford study says that in the next decade 47% will be automated.
Are we really going to maintain jobs and goods we don't need, ravage the environment and break the laws of nature while doing it for the sake of capitalism?
How is that sensible and rational?
-
I think Stefan's bizarre comments here are just a result of his heterosexual orientation which always drags along with it male disposability and double standards.
Women are delicate flowers of purity, and men are wild beasts of perversion. He still thinks like that subconsciously and this was only augmented and reaffirmed with the birth of his daughter.

Wait, who exactly is gonna protect you from Islamic fascism and imperialism without the US DOD?
Sure, you can say that USA is an evil empire and for the most part you would be correct, but Islamic cancer is far worse.
-
Also, what about the non-human sacrifice to the altar of free market, like planned obscolescence which has a horryfing toll on the environment?
-
Haha! Thank you for making my point
Likewise.

It was suggested that you're a troll because you're all output, no input, and resort to ad hominem as extreme as "not even living on this planet" regularly.
I would say that you are confabulating in the lieu of substantive response while using the preset language of this community, but I don't want to hurt such delicate flower any further.
-
how?
For one to ask this one has to have no idea about history, political activism and lobbying of jesus-cultists, organisational consolidation in a vacuum of power, indoctrination and polls.
Are you really that ignorant about everything or just trying to use dishonesty as a tool for dismissal?

"If there were anything true about culture, they wouldn't call it culture!"
That's brilliant, I always had no respect for any culture, it's just an accumulation of irrationalities which are collectively habituated.

I'm waiting for Stefan to make a new video acknowledging these facts presented to him.
It's all about reason and evidence, right?
